MEXICO CITY, July 12 (Xinhua) -- Three police officers were killed and 10 others wounded on Tuesday in an explosives attack in Mexico's western state of Jalisco, said local authorities.
According to local reports, the explosion occurred near a vehicle in which the officers were traveling.
The attack is "an unprecedented act and shows what these organized crime groups are capable of," Jalisco Governor Enrique Alfaro tweeted.
Jalisco is the base of one of the country's most powerful drug trafficking groups, according to local reports, saying the cartel has a presence in a large part of Mexico. ■
